Visit the Old Town, which is 2000 years old and the result of a mix of city cultures and backgrounds: from Roman to Muslim and Christian. One of my favorite attractions is the Mercado Central (Central Market), open Mon.-Sat. from 07:30-14:30 (closed on Sundays). Have some tapas at Central Bar by renowned local chef Ricard Camarena, a small bar inside the market. My preferred tapas: “ensaladilla rusa”, “croquetas de pollo”, “buñuelos de bacalao” and “patatas bravas”. It might be crowded (especially on Saturdays), so be prepared for a wait. Pop across the road to La Lonja de la Seda, open Mon.-Sat. from 09:30-19:00, entrance: 2 EUR; Sundays and bank holidays from 09:30-15:00, free admission. This was the Silk Exchange, built between 1482 and 1533, and nowadays is a UNESCO World Heritage site. It is made of three rooms almost empty and a beautiful small garden. Continue versus the Plaza del Tossal and take the charismatic Calle Caballeros to the Plaza de la Virgen. You will see the Palau de la Generalitat, the Basilica, the Cathedral, the Miguelete (main bell tower). Visit the Church of San Nicolas (the so called Valencian Sistine Chapel). You can also seek out Torres de Serranos (Serrano Towers), north of the Carmen, near the old riverbed, and there is a great view and a photo shot across the river. Stop and enjoy a coffee or a drink at the Plaza del Doctor Collado or the Plaza del Negrito, or in one of the terraces in the surroundings of the Central Market and the Lonja. Walk to the Plaza del Ayuntamiento (City Hall Square) and enter the magnificent Post Office. Visit also the City Hall and its Balcony, the Crystal Room and the Historical Museum (free admission and open Mon.-Fri., from 9:00-14:00). South of Plaza del Ayuntamiento, you can see the wonderful modernist train station “l’Estació del Nord” (Nord Railway Station),the Plaza de Toros (Bull Ring) and then head along Calle Colón for a little light shopping in Camper, Zara, Massimo Dutti, El Corte Inglés and other Spanish shops. In Calle Jorge Juan you will find some other nice Spanish brands and boutiques. Once there, you could stop at the Mercado de Colón for a refreshing “horchata”

El Carmen is the historic barrio of Valencia, with architecture dating back to 1238! In recent years, it has become known for its street art making it a striking juxtaposition between old and new. Here you will find some of the city's most iconic buildings, from the Cathedral, the the Plaza de la Virgen, to the Lonja de Seda. Top Tip: If you look into the glass outside L'Almoina, you will discover the original Roman ruins of Valencia!
